This dreamy vintage 1980s Victor Costa pastel floral dress features the most 1980s shape, including voluminous puff sleeves, and a fitted princess-seam bodice with a dropped waist. It subtly creates an hourglass shape. These puff sleeves are really exaggerated, which I love, with tulle on the interior to help them hold their shape. There is some versatility with the neckline, as the sleeves can be worn off the shoulder, and can also be pulled up and worn on the shoulder; there is hidden elastic at the top of the sleeve that allows it to firmly stay in place no matter how you wear it. The fitted bodice gives way to a fuller skirt— there is a built-in tulle petticoat to support the fullness of the skirt. The pastel floral print feels like it was painted in watercolor, with all the best spring-y colors. The material is exceptionally soft and slinky. (Fiber contents are not listed but it feels like a cotton/silk blend.) The bodice is fully lined and it closes in the back with a zipper. Made in the USA. After studying in Paris, Victor Costa got his start in the New York fashion world making wedding gowns, and he translated that same fantasy into his subsequent foray in the ready-to-wear world. In 1973, he started his own eponymous label, Victor Costa, and cultivated a large following of customers and fans, including Whitney Houston and the cast of the television series Dynasty. Costa is best known for his decidedly "American" interpretation of European couture.

The Vintage Floral Earrings pictured are also available.

Quality tallow in a giant container for an amazing price that doesn't bother my severe allergies!
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been using this product for 3 months and I love it! It is a thick consistency, like you would expect good quality tallow. It feels great on your skin and absorbs fairly quickly. It is a large size jar for the price, I still have over half left and I have used it on my neck and hands as well... sometimes on my legs. I am allergic to artificial fragrance, and this tallow does not bother me. The scent is pleasant, with a slight after-smell of tallow, but it is not unappealing. It is very moisturizing for many parts of the body, but I especially like it for my face and neck. My skin truly has a better glow and tone after using the product for a few months. I can't wait to see how great it will feel at the end of the jar!

Great value for the size. Easy to apply and absorbs quickly wherever you apply it. Does not leave any oily residue and it smells fragrant. Moisturizes and works quickly. Skin feels instantly smooth.

This product is da' BALM! (a softening balm that's the best moisturizer for all skin types!)
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
So many of these are all over social media and I wasn't sure to order a whipped version, or just a balm, so I went with the balm and I'm totally satisfied. No breakouts to my sensitive, mature dry skin, and the scent is light citrus and non-lingering. I suggest to lightly swirl finger tips inside the container in a circular motion and scoop a tiny amount then rub both fingertips together to warm the product as this is key to make it glide smoothly onto your skin, otherwise, you are having to re-dip into the product and use more than you will need. I use it AM/PM right after my facial serums, and follow with SPF moisturizer. I'm not a fan of foundation or powder to avoid the caked on look, but use a little creme blush when heading to work, and will dab a little concealer where needed too. I've been using my Ancestral Haven Beef Tallow/Honey Balm a couple of weeks now and my pores seem smaller than when using any of my previous French pricey skin products! I use this on my face and lightly under eyes, neck, decollete and the heels/sides of my feet every morning. Any remaining product I apply to top my hands. It absorbs quickly without being greasy. If you experience an oily result, then lighten your next application as the product is light if you don't warm it up with your fingertips. I highly recommend and can't wait to tell my dermatologist about it too! Oh and my 86 years young mom uses this daily and loves it too! (Christmas gifts coming her way so she doesn't deplete my supply - lol).

Tried 100’s of product and this is all my son lets me use on him willingly!
Scent: Honey & Sweet Orange, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The ONLY product I can put on my child’s eczema and allergy problematic skin and not irritate his skin. My son has TERRIBLE SKIN that is EXTREMELY sensitive and to top that off, he also picks at his scabs. This is the only product I’ve ever been able to use on him and use up the entire product because he doesn’t breakout in a rash, it doesn’t sting his skin in even the worst of areas that are freshly picked scabs, and that’s a huge deal for us! It is extremely moisturizing and although slightly greasy, it’s a much better feeling on the skin then what you get from a Aquaphor or petroleum jelly. That and my son absolutely cannot stand the texture of Aquaphor and petroleum jelly, but with the tallow, he doesn’t hardly say a word as long as I don’t put it on too thick. This can be layered for extra protection in problem areas, or worked into the skin and absorbs quite nicely and feels fantastic! It has a very mild scent that I truly love, but the scent doesn’t really travel outside the jar so you know it’s very minimal. After the hundreds of products that I’ve tried and the thousands of dollars wasted over the years, I will continue to purchase this as my holy grail for my son’s extremely sensitive skin condition. Thank you so much!!!! And I will upload pictures of before and after so be sure to see how well it’s healed his skin within a week of use!
